SPLS faculty, attached are the draft Revised SPLS APR Guidelines reviewed and revised by the current APR committee. There have been a few changes from previous guidelines, most notably the requirement to upload a CV into UAVitae. But there have also been
a couple of procedural changes to the review process that have been suggested to us for inclusion into our unit APR Guidelines document. In addition, the committee has highlighted a couple of additional points that we feel need more discussion among the general
faculty and perhaps change.</div>

Please review the attached document. The items of interest for closer review and discussion are highlighted in yellow. Following review, we will discuss these points and possible modifications at the upcoming faculty meeting. Finally, the faculty will vote
online and anonymously to approve or not approve the revised Guidelines. Please email if you have any questions or just bring them to the faculty meeting. Thanks.</div>
